Toy trouble for Team Toxic

The new issue of Toxic is out now (issue 174) and features The Cuddly Crushers from Hallie Tosis Island! Team Toxic's nemesis now has her own island where she can carry out her experiments... and her first act of terror is to send giant robot cuddly toys to menace Spud City. As I'm sure any evil dictator would, given half a chance.

Can Team Toxic stop them? Find out by running up to your local newsagents and handing over your £2.99 now! (Whereupon your newsagent will probably say he doesn't stock it and you'll have to drive into town to your nearest WH Smiths or Asda etc.)

About this blog:

Established in 2006, BLIMEY! is a blog that looks back at classic British comics and promotes some current and upcoming titles. Images are copyright their respective publishers and are only used here for review purposes.

The images of comics on my blog are ones I've spent time scanning from my own personal comics collection or, in the case of some current issues, are promotional images sent to me by the publishers. On the rare occasion when I might use an image from another site I always credit the source. If you take images I've scanned to use on your own blog/site I'd appreciate if you'd have the good manners to show the same courtesy.

No links to sites that indulge in wholesale piracy of comics are tolerated here. If you're a genuine comics fan, support the industry by buying the comics.

Hey, folks! Comics!
